On Monday, Salih confirmed that the posters would be removed immediately. "The signs are going to be taken down," he said. "This was not a city policy, so it will not be enforced. This is the first time I've ever heard about this."

Though parents are happy that the signs are being taken down, London Mayor Matt Brown says he will continue investigating the matter.

During a radio appearance on "The Craig Needles Show," Mayor Brown said: "It just doesn't strike me as reasonable to expect a three-year-old to go through a [change room] with someone who's not a family member. So I'm going to look into it today."
